 Today is 16th Shrawan, 2077. We have a tradition of worshipping Siddhababa at Resunag evey year on 15th Shrawan. This year, we had planned to go and worship there today. So, today I got up at seven and had a bath. Then after having tea, I and Bunu started our daily duty. At 9:30, Hari sir and I started our journey to Resunga by bikes. 

The road to there was not good. Just  below Garjura, there was landslide an, the road had been almost impassable. We removed the stones of the road and made it for the bikes. Other people also supported us. The road from Garjura was almost good, there was no major problem. We reached there in 1 hour 30 minutes. It had been 11 AM. After keeping the helmets in the hotel near Pokhari and parking the bikes near there, we started the uphill and journey to Yagyashala and Siddhathan. 

On the way just below Garusthan, we met Yuvraj sir, Basu sir, Khimkali ma'am and Madhabi ma'am, who were going there and had started their journey at 8:30 from Tamghas. They were really tired and having photos when we reached there. We also joined them for photograph.

When we left Yagyashala, It had been 12. We came  to Pokhari and just peeped the plants that we had planted last year at this time. There were 3 alive out of 8 plants.  We felt that protection and sustaining policy is must rather than planting. We hoped to come again with Eco-club after pandemic to protect them and left the place. After that we two started our journey by bikes whereas Yuvraj sir, Basu sir, Khimkali ma'am and Madhabi ma'am, they set on foots. We couldn't lift them as the road was not good and they were in the group.

गुरु पूर्णिमा विशेष

असार २१ गते , आइतबार
२०७७

आज अलि छिटो उठ्ने अनि नुहाइधुवाइ गरी गुरुहरुलाई स्मरण गर्ने योजना थियो तर अल्छिपनाले जाँगरलाई जितेपछि कसैको केही लाग्दो रहेनछ । बिहान ६ बज्दा नबज्दै उठेर रेडियो त खोलियो तर ओछ्यान छोडेर नुहाइधुवाइ गर्न चाहीँ जाँगर चलेन । सात बजेतिर मात्र उठेर  हातमुखसम्म चाहीँ धोइयो । त्यसपछि चियाँ पकाइवरि बुनु, बसु र मैले खायौँ । अब बल्ल गुरुलाई भर्चुअली सम्झन मन लाग्यो । गुगलमा गुरुपूर्णिमासँग सम्बन्धित एउटा फोटो खोज्न पनि अल्लि समय लाग्यो । धेरैमा रोज्नै गाह्रो । त्यसपछि एउटा सामान्य स्टाट्सले एकछिन समय खायो । 

                सामग्री त तयार भयो तर पोस्ट कसरी गर्ने ! क–कसलाई ट्याग गर्ने ! एकछिनपछि पोस्ट अपलोड गरी फेसबुकमा भएका प्राय सबै जसो गुरुहरुलाई ट्याग गरे पनि सबैलाई भेटाउन सकिएन ! बसन्त कार्की सरलाई फेसबुकमा भेटाइन ! रत्नराज्य क्याम्पसमा दुई दिन मेजर इङ्गलिस पढाएका सरको त नामै भुलेछु ! त्यही बेला २०७५ एस.ई.ई. व्याच मुक्तबहादुर पुनको म्यासेन्जर कल आयो । झण्डै ५ मिनेट गफ भए ! गफपछि मिनबहादुर अर्याल सरदेखि नारायण खनाल सरसम्मका गुरुहरुलाई ट्याग गरेँ । जीवनका हरेक पलमा हामी कसै न कसैबाट केही न केही त सिकिरहेकै हुन्छौँ, दार्शनिकहरु भन्छन् ‘ हामीले मान्छेबाट भन्दा किरा फट्याङग्रा तथा जनावरहरुबाट धेरै कुराहरु सिक्न सक्छौँ ।

जे होस् आजको एकदिन हाम्रालागि गुरुप्रति कृतज्ञता प्रकट गर्ने दिन बनेको छ, चाहे त्यो भर्चुअल माध्यमबाटै किन नहोस् । फेसबुकमा आर्ई.डी. भएका गुरुहरुलाई ट्याग गरुञ्जेल खाना खाने बेला पनि भइसकेको थियो । फेरि विद्यालय पनि त जानुपर्ने । त्यसैले हामीले खाना खायौँ र म बसुन्धरा भन्दा  केही अघि विद्यालयतर्फ लागेँ । बसुन्धराले अचेल ११ बजेसम्म बुनुलाई अनलाइन पढाइमा जोड्नुपर्ने भएको छ । 

विद्यालयमा पुगेपछि हाजिरी लगाइयो अनि कम्प्युटर कक्षमा बसेर कक्षा ११ को IEMIS Update गर्ने काम गरियो । तर लेखामा तथ्याङ्क व्यवस्थापन व्यवस्थित नहुनाले दुरुस्त डाटा भने देखिएन । सररहरुलाई केही आई.टी.का कुराहरु सिकाउने अनि आफै पनि सिक्ने काम भयो । अपराह्न्न ४ः३० तिर कोठामा फर्किएर दाजाका रुपमा रोटी चिया खाइयो । तत्पश्चात STFT बर्दियाको तालिममा सहभागी भएँ । ख्ख्ब् कोडको प्रयोगसम्बन्धी कक्षा थियो तर प्रशिक्षकको बोलि अलि स्पष्ट नभएको र मेरालाई नयाँ विषय पनि भएकाले बुझ्न अलि गाह्रो भयो ।
तालिमपश्चात करिब ८ः१५ तिर खाना खायौँ अनि केहीबेर टी.भी. हेरर बुनु र बासु ओछ्यानमा पल्टिए । मैले यो डायरी लेख्न थालेँ ।
